====
I saw other posts that I was not able to edit. Both of them required edits to settings.py. When I attempted to do, after inserting, editor said settings.py was a read-only file.
What do I need to do to edit this file?

At one point, I was having this issue where my application server wasnt able to use ired to relay mail, and it was seemly fixed by adding/editing subnets in the main.cf mynetworks area.

But as you can see, I having an issue again. Not sure why.

Please help

Force the editor to write. for example, if you use vi/vim, use ":w!" to force it, and make sure you're currently a system user which has the right to write.
